firstly, thank you so, so much for those who showed interest by interacting with my initial ask! it meant a TON <3
for those that didnāt get to see the context, my dearest friend and i have decided to dip our toes in creating a team of artists for a photography zine, as weāve always wanted to create a community of like-minded artists where we encourage and inspire each other to create new pieces and challenge each other by exploring different themes and methodologies we may not have looked into otherwise. plus, we just love zines and always wanted to make one ourselves :D
we will be publishing our zine online and will be offering opportunities in the future to acquire physical zines for anyone interested in a copy~
as a sneak peek, our first issueās theme will be āanalog distortion v.s. digital distortionā :O
we finally got the discord up and running, so if youāre interested in more details on how the zine will operate and for more details on our themeā¦

joining the discord doesnāt mean u have to commit right away! pls feel free to change ur mind if u feel that the zine isnāt right for u after all
(and to clarify, revenue, if any, made from the zine goes directly to our artists and back into the zine first and foremost! but we are a passion project and community space more than anything)
cheers, every1 (:

now i can actually add a rec to my own post! yesterday i went to a film screening at anthology film archives and watched zined! it was an comedic, down to earth documentary about average people making zines to document the music culture around them, state subversive political issues, create personal diaries, etc.
and it did feature some shots of kinkoās!

my friend and i made a new zine about a day in the life of an old cowboy. heās a man outside of time and space, existing in his own dimension and moving at his own pace. walking in slow motion in search of tequila and friendsā¦
inspired by chatsworth and the valley in LA

personally, i thought it was just alright. the pacing was not my favourite in the world but the cinematography and set design was gorg. the actors did a phenomenal job with their respective roles as well. however, the plot itself was lackluster and the film overall was not probing any new or enticing questions or analyses in the grand scheme of feminist theory that hasn't already been done, and done in a more effective and intruiging way (to ME).
not to say that a film HAS to always be revolutionary, but my theory is that a lot of people have been "overrating" Poor Things and acting like it IS revolutionary partially because the public has been jaded by the majority of big films being one of four things: remakes, sequels, live adaptations of a pre-existing animation, or about the multiverse. not that these types of film are inherently bad, but when theaters are being flooded with these movies, it leaves film execs no desire to create a unique script and film as they are likely worried that original films with little to no pre-existing fanbase would not be as profitable comparatively.
however, i do think that the high praise and positive reception of Poor Things has done a lot of good by showing execs that original movies CAN be successful and the public DOES WANT THEM. i also think its great that an arthouse film is serving as a symbol to push for more original films in the future. plus, just because i don't consider it revolutionary doesn't mean someone else isn't allowed to! these are simply my own personal views so pls don't feel discouraged if u really enjoyed the movie!
